Cake Popsicles (1st Attempt)

Have you seen the new craze for parties/showers for food?  It's cake Popsicles.  While out scouting the clearance V-day stuff in hopes to get some great decor for the upcoming bridal shower for a lady at church, I picked up this cute little heart pan to make my own cake Popsicles.

I made some marshmallow pops for the last baby shower that we did, and wasn't quite sure how to put on the frosting/candy melt for these Popsicles, so I did a trial run.







The downside to this is that I feel like I am wasting my oven power by only baking 9 muffins at a time.  Sooooo, I had THE GIRL whip up a batch of mocha brownies to make while these were baking...mmmmmnnn...mocha brownies....

Here is my first batch:

 






They were too fat (I filled them up too full), and one side was kinda goofy looking. 

The next step is to either warm up your frosting or melt candy.  I opted for frosting since I had it on hand. 







I left the frosting in the microwave for too long.  Epic fail :(

The frosting is too thin, and is just pitiful. 

I tried again, and got a better frosting coverage. 

The last batch I cooked, I only filled the batter halfway and these came out perfectly shaped hearts!  I didn't over melt the frosting and they were nice and pretty. 

Now the only problem I have is this: How to I get it to be perfectly frosted on ALL sides so I can put a stick in it? 

I guess that is what I will figure out next Tuesday, the day of the bridal shower.  Stay tuned for how those turn out!
